A shallow sea covered the southern parts of the continent while northern areas, forming the Huanan Landmass, were emergent. At the beginning of the Devonian most of South China was above sea level. Subsequent transgression from the south gave rise to an irregular coastline with the development of many fault-controlled gulfs. Further transgression led to the development of an epicontinental sea with reefs forming along the margins of the submerged gulfs and black shales deposited within them. By Emsian time a widespread carbonate platform was established, while anoxic deposition continued in the troughs. The marine transgression peaked in the Frasnian Stage. During Famennian time widespread regression occurred and much of South China became once more emergent. Peneplanation of the Huanan Landmass led to the partial infilling of many of the older fault-bounded depressions. Throughout the Devonian the local distribution of sediments was strongly controlled by NE-SW trending transtensional faults that bounded NW-SE trending normal faults. These structures continued to influence sedimentation in the Late Palaeozoic, the Mesozoic and possibly the Tertiary in the offshore Beibu Gulf Basin.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":85022,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Southeast Asian earth sciences","volume":"14 1","pages":"Pages 37-52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0743-9547(96)00020-7","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"56213093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the first time, we have recently discovered a small foraminiferal fauna characterized by two <em>Fusulinella</em> species (<em>F. bocki</em> von Möller and <em>F. praebocki</em> Rauser-Chernoussova) from a limestone collected at Huai Luang, about 5 km east of Wang Saphung, Changwat Loei, Northeast Thailand, where the <em>Fusulina pulchella</em> fauna was reported previously.

The present discovery of a <em>Fusulinella</em>-bearing foraminiferal fauna from Huai Luang, indicative of a Late Moscovian age (most probably to the Myachkovsky Horizon in the Russian standard scheme), provides important data to clarify the faunal composition of the <em>Fusulina pulchella</em> Zone and to compare the Late Moscovian foraminiferal faunal affinity in the Loei-Wang Saphung area with those of the type and reference sections.

Tectonic subsidence, paroxysmal eruptions, volcanism-induced faulting/rifting, drainage system adaptations and intramontane lacustrine sedimentation (partly geomorphology-controlled) constitute the dominant landform-determining processes.

Fluvial sedimentation and weathering prevailed in the basin, while the southern and northern volcanic ranges gradually formed. Basin subsidence, with contemporaneous volcanism around 125 kyr B.P., resulted in the formation of an enclosed intramontane basin, and stimulated lacustrine sedimentation. From this time on, concentration of volcanicity in the northern Sunda-Tangkuban Perahu complex and the resulting morphostructural developments caused rapid (catastrophic) and localized morphological changes. Cataclysmic eruptions (around 105 kyr B.P. and 50-35 kyr B.P.) caused voluminous sediment inflow in the northwestern basin. These events mark the significance of the Sunda-Tangkuban Perahu volcanic centre during the Late Quaternary; the Sunda volcano collapsed into a caldera in which later the Tangkuban Perahu volcano developed. Moreover, these eruptions controlled regional sedimentation and determined landform development in the greater basin area. In the vicinity of the eruption centre, volcano-tectonic faulting formed the conspicuous E-W Lembang fault that controlled distribution of volcaniclastic sediments and the initiation of a new drainage system in the Lembang area. In the low-lying Bandung plain persistent (fluvio)lacustrine and volcaniclastic sedimentation, followed by basin subsidence and minor fluvial erosion characterised the younger phases of landform development.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":85022,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Southeast Asian earth sciences","volume":"14 1","pages":"Pages 101-115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0743-9547(96)00069-4","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"56214523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
